Flask server weather station design to run on Raspberry Pi

Weather Station v0.1

Requirements

Hardware

1. Linux Box (I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3)
2. TemperUSB Stick (https://www.amazon.com/Jepeak-Thermometer-Temperature-Record-Laptop/dp/B009YRP906)

Software

1. Python 2.7
2. Native Ubuntu (Can't use VM due to segmentation faults)

Setup

1. Run the following commands

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-usb python-setuptools snmpd # The latter is only necessary for SNMP-usage.
sudo easy_install snmp-passpersist

1. Change directory into the temper-python folder and run sudo python setup.py install
2. Test the temperature reading by running sudo temper-poll
3. pip install flask
4. python flaskServer.py
